[New] Night overview section in PDF report

PDF report for prisma SOFT/SMART and prisma VENT therapy devices is now extended with a new Night Overview section to help getting more insights into a patient’s therapy.

Night Overview section provides visualization of trends for pressure, leakage and therapy events, based on low-resolution curves data (one record every 2 minutes) received from therapy devices.

For more details, please refer to this article.

[New] Scheduled reminders

It is now possible to organize and keep track of different tasks by setting Scheduled Reminders from patients’ files.
To set up a new reminder concerning a particular patient open a patient file, go to ‘Reminders’ tab at the top of the page, and click ‘New reminder’ button.

When a due date is reached, corresponding patient is displayed on the top of patients lists (based on patient’s category) in ‘Scheduled’ section until a reminder is Snoozed or Completed.

[New] Export data from Patients tabs into CSV-file

Users with an access to Patients list can now create an export of all patients’ data into CSV-file for flexible usage and analysis. CSV-file export contains a flat list with same patients’ data that is visible in prisma CLOUD web UI.

General improvements of prisma CLOUD

• More clarity on therapy data availability with comprehensive messages in patients’ accordions.
• Disabling of data uploads with .pdat and .psstat file formats.
• Regular deletion of therapy data associated with patients – therapy days dated more than 3 years ago is deleted on a regular basis.
• Numerous bug fixes and improvements, providing more reliability, performance and stability.

Night Overview section provides visualization of trends for pressure, leakage and therapy events, based on low-resolution curves data received from therapy devices. In case this data is available within last 28 days of selected report period, each therapy day is printed on its own page (maximum 7 therapy days).

Low-resolution curves data (also called “trend curves”) is recorded 1 sample per 2 minutes in accordance with the following specification.

Important to know

• prisma SOFT/SMART therapy devices transmit trend curves data only in case both conditions are met: (1) an SD-card is inserted into a device during therapy and transmission, and (2) device sends data upon automatic daily transmissions.
• prisma VENT therapy devices transmit trend curves data only starting from 3.9.5 firmware version.

Allgemeine Stabilitäts- und Leistungsverbesserungen

A box plot should quickly give you an idea of where the data is and how it spreads across the possible range. A box depicts the range containing 50% of the data. The median is shown as a horizontal line within the box.The median is the typical value and is unaffected by the outliers, it divides the data in two ranges; each range contains 50% of the data. Our box plots have also lines (so called whiskers), which extend the boxes vertically, indicating variability outside the lower (25th percentile) and upper (75th percentile) quartiles.
The spacing between the different parts of the box indicate the degree of scattering and skewness in the data.

In the following posts we are going to introduce our PDF report. We start with a short overview:
Structure of the report
PDF report contains three parts for now
1. Overview page, which provides a summary about patients therapy situation over the entire time range selected for analysis
2. 4-week calendar, which provides a close-up analysis of last up to 28 days of selected time range for analysis. It supports you in identifying demand and type of intervention
3. Expanded statistics, which provides more details about patients therapy situation over the entire time range selected for analysis.

Overview page
Beside administrative data of your patient, you will find the respective last therapy settings for the selected period, the overview of the device usage, major indices about the therapy success like o/c AHI, snoring, periodical breathing etc. as well as the information about the mask-fit.

4-week calendar
The 4-week calendar provides a close-up analysis of last up to 28 days of selected period for analysis. It supports you in identifying demand and type of intervention.
On the left part of the page, there is a therapy calendar with day-by-day data on device usage, therapy quality and leakage for the last 28 days. For the visualisation of some values like therapy pressure, leakage, breathing frequency or target volume, we use box plot diagrams.
From the right part of the 4-week calendar, so called Analysis part, you can get deeper insights about patient’s therapy.
The 4-week calendar is divided horizontally into 3 sections: Compliance, Therapy and Leakage

Expanded statistics
